There were a few blurbs in the news the other day about MustVote. It's a site that offers a free exclusive download from artists including Pearl Jam, Radiohead, & Talib Kewli for every person that someone registers to vote.

It's interesting how downloads are becoming a form of currency used for barter transactions with consumers unlike CDs, tapes & other music media (yes people do use CDs for giveaways, but not like consumer brands and companies are using downloads).

While I'm on the music & voting trip: My friends at GarageBand are currently on the road for the "Choozapalooza" tour that they created involving indie artist gigs in swing states (www.choozapalooza.com). So be sure to check them out if they come to a city near you.

Finally, the hotornot.com guys thing are doing another brilliant thing: www.voteornot.org. The 2 founders are giving away $100 K of their own money towards the voter registration cause. The first $100 K goes to the person that registers the most voters. The 2nd $100 K goes to the person that referred the first person. A stroke of genius if you ask me...
